Pink Petals

It's been a while since I've made an empties post. I find I get a little discouraged if I didn't have many empties at the end of the month for the post, so I think I'll be posting this once a season so I can accumulate more. This season's empties were primarily shower items, but hey, at least it's something! Onto my empties and tosses for Spring!

Rating Guide:
☆ - All aboard the nope train!
☆☆ - Meh... It's okay
☆☆☆ - YAAASSSSSS!!
Full Size:
Batiste Original Dry Shampoo ☆☆☆
I love Batiste dry shampoo and it's so useful for those rushed mornings.
O'Canada Soapworks Jasmine Rice Soap ☆☆
I really like that these soaps are natural and made in Canada - I just wish the scent was a bit stronger. 
LUSH Blousey Shampoo ☆☆
At first, I LOVED this shampoo and was surprised at how well it worked. But then my hair started feeling icky - like it wasn't being fully cleaned - so I started double shampooing with a regular shampoo as well.
Pantene Ultimate 10 BB Creme Shampoo & Conditioner ☆☆
It does what it needs to do! I didn't notice a difference in my hair, but it's also damaged beyond repair.
John Freida Straight Answer Straightening Spray ☆☆
I didn't notice a difference with this spray, but I found it helped my hair detangle a bit so I would spray it on right after the shower.
Anatomicals You need a blooming shower! Your nose smells rose body cleanser ☆☆☆
I love the scent of this body wash and I usually don't like straight up florals, but this was subtle enough for me.
The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Toner ☆☆☆
My all time FAVOURITE toner. I've already repurchased and can't wait to use it again!
Sample Size:
Versace Bright Crystal ☆☆
The Body Shop Aloe Soothing Day Cream ☆☆
Gud from Burt's Bees Pearanormal Activity Body Lotion ☆☆ 
The Face Shop Chia Seed Sebum Control Moisture Cream ☆
Jergens Daily Moiosturizer ☆☆
Frownies  Eye Gels ☆☆
This was a saviour when work got super busy and I had little to no sleep. I didn't find purpose in reusing the eye gels - mostly because I didn't have the serum - so I only got one use of it.
Skyn Iceland Hydra Cool Firming Eye Gels ☆☆
This was also a saviour when work got super busy and I had little to no sleep.
Perricone MD Firming Neck Therapy ☆
I found that this didn't really do anything but moisturize my neck.
Ojon Rare Blend Oil Total Hair Therapy ☆☆
This hair oil was a bit too heavy for my hair, even when applied only on the ends. I loved the scent though, which reminded me of an orange flavoured lollipop.

Tosses:
Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Forever Stay Eye Pencil in Pure Plum ☆
The colour of this eyeliner just didn't suit my skin tone at all and didn't smudge well enough to use on the lids. In the trash it goes!

I'm really happy with the empties I had this season. I'm trying really hard to finish products so I can start new ones but it's so difficult when new products hit the market everyday.

What was your biggest empty so far for 2017?

Cherry Blossoms are beautiful flowers that bloom on trees and produce a lovely scent. Unfortunately, Cherry Blossom season comes once a year for such a short time - late April to mid May here in Toronto. If you missed your chance this year to see the Cherry Blossoms in person, worry not because Calgon and Bodycology have got you covered with their Cherry Blossom bath and body collections!
This season, drench yourself in Cherry Blossom goodness with Calgon's Japanese Cherry Blossom Skin Silkening Bubble Bath and Japanese Cherry Blossom Fragrance Body Mist along with Bodycology's Cherish the Moment Cherry Blossom Moisturizing Body Wash, Cherish the Moment Cherry Blossom Fragrance and Cherry Blossom Bath Fizzies.

Calgon's Japanese Cherry Blossom Skin Silkening Bubble Bath ($5.99) is a great way to relax with plentiful bubbles accompanied by the sweet floral scent of cherry blossoms. I was really happy with this product because the bubbles stayed for quite a while! The Japanese Cherry Blossom Fragrance Body Mist ($7.99) is refreshing and light, working best when applied right after a shower or bath.

Bodycology's Cherish the Moment Cherry Blossom Moisturizing Body Wash ($6.97) is moisturizing and leaves your body cleansed with a light cherry blossom finish. The Cherry Blossom Bath Fizzies ($6.97) are my favourite by far and come in a pack of eight - talk about a steal! Pair this up with the Japanese Cherry Blossom Bubble Bath and you are in pretty much in bubble bath heaven!
